Revenge

REVENGE

I don’t know why

I don’t know how

What was it this time?

Did I wrong you?

 

We loved each other

Why?

All the times we shared together

This time what ripped us apart

 

I can’t get it right

You know what

My heart is sad

Broken

The shard of my heart can’t be put together by anyone

Only you

 

Why? I can’t do this anymore

You are pushing me to assail you

Just like a window is assailed by rain.

I cry all night

I dream of vicious ideas against you

All because….

I can’t take the bruises all by myself.

The pain is too much.

Revenge Revenge Revenge filling my head

 

I’m trying to give up and let you go

But I can’t do this

Because I have to so you feel the agony that’s crippling me

VENGEANCE I’m after

But no… I forgive you

I forgive you because the LORD has forgiven me

 

Even though it hurts I forgive you

Vengeance no more

I’m after

The heart of Forgiveness and Mercy I have now

For the Holy SON has transformed me
